Be careful with those Milwaukee screwdriver bits if they are the impact ones. I got a box of them in screwfix & I've managed to snap off several of them driving in long screws with an impact screwdriver. They snap off the nose of the bit, leaving it in the screw. Then the fun begins if you need to remove the screw!
They seem to be over hardened & that makes them shatter, probably sending out some flying shards of metal!
We have the Lidl version of that wet grinder at our mens shed & it's great for restoring the tips on chisels & planes. But I don't know why they didn't fit some sort of rest on the wet stone & what are all those steps for in the edge of the tank.

My pleasure, I'll listen out for it in an induction then I'll know @Parm has been involved!
180mph! A bit optimistic isn't it?
That's almost the same mileage (kilometreage?) as my Surf! My clock has a KPH clock that's been converted to MPH yours looks like it might be a Four Runner one.
Love my ol truck!
Was hoping to get a photo of the analogue tachograph in my elderly DAF last week when the odometer rolled past 500,000. For the fifth time
. Yep, a 20 year old wagon that's covered over 2.5 million km's and is still going strong

Also, remember a specialist is someone who knows more and more about less and less.

People talk now of having "specialisms", what ever happened to 'specialities'?

Disappointing Car Boot.
Bad weather, bad sellers, bad food. But good company.
2 sharpening stones.
Top one is caked, but flat.
The bottom one is smooth and flat. The Box was what I wanted.
£0:50p for the pair.

How about MEng and BEng? Not too harsh preferably, with a bit of luck I'll have the former in a couple of years.

can't think of one, offhand.
but incidentally, do you know the difference between an engineer, and a fitter?
A fitter uses the biggest hammer he can find.
an engineer has 4 years of uni to learn what size hammer to use. (still the biggest he can find).
